I’ve Been Swabbed!

When I wrote earlier this week, I said it was going to be 5-10 days before the Wisdom Panel 4.0 DNA kits arrived but guess what?! They got here on Thursday!

We all thought the swab was going to be a Q-tip but we were all wrong! It’s a bristly Scrubby McScrubberson thing that you roll between the cheek and gum line for a whole 15 seconds!! Mom had to wrestle both of us to get it done.

Macy tried to eat hers:

Each kit came with 2 swabbies for ultra-DNA collection assurance.

Molly was SO happy she didn’t have to get swabbed.

After we were swab-inated, the swabbers had to “air dry” for 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, Mom put them in the super swabby mailer thingy.

Secret: One of my swabinators had a tiny piece of my dinner on it! I guess that’s why they send 2. Oops!

Friday morning, Mom took the swabbies to the mailbox and put them in for the mail lady to take to the swab analyticalators. Now we wait. Only 2 to 3 more weeks before we know if I’m a Schnoodle, a Schnussel, or maybe even a coyote!

If you haven’t voted yet, make sure you vote on what primary breed you think Macy and I are:

Wow! They scrubbed a pipe cleaner in your mouth? That sounds terrible! (My Dad is into that geneology stuff and made ghostwriter, and Oma get that genetic testing stuff. All they had to do was spit into a test tube.) Hope you find something really interesting after that ordeal!

This comment is for your mum, Noodle (we just have a digital ear scratch for you): don’t you love it when pups clamp down when you need them to cooperate just a tad more for things like this? We know the news will be good, be it Schnoddle, doodle or whatever. Good luck!

BOL! It sounds better to be swabbinated than swabbed. Thank goodness they only had to swabinate my cheek! If I had been at the vet’s, I can only imagine where they would’ve tried to put that thing. Have I said thank you for being my BFF lately? THANK YOU! *ear licks* Noodle Your Moodle
